The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"This is a great car to drive in the summer, or all year too! The air conditioning isn't very cold anymore, but I didn't use it all summer because the top was down anyways! The only other problem is the driver window goes down pretty slowly. It's done it the past two years, and I had my mechanic look at it but he said it wasn't worth taking it to Volkswagen dealership to look at if it still goes up and down."

This is my dad's old summer car.  My dad's friend from England was in New York on business and my dad bought this car from him in 1997.  My dad has basically owned and taken care of the car since it was brand new.  We have only used this car as a summer car for most of it's life and it is in good condition for the age.  I decided two summers ago that I was going to use this in the summer instead of my dodge truck.  I liked driving it so much I did some work, and got new tires for it.  This is seriously a blast to drive.  It's no drag racer, but it it the most comfortable car to be in during the summer.  

Regular maintenance has been done to this vehicle.  The clutch still feels very nice and it is a very fun car to drive.  We have also done quite a bit of work to the car including:
-New brakes. Pads and rotors on the front and back
-New muffler and part of exhaust system cause I didn't want it to rust out
-New performance air intake for better miles per gallon
-New stereo and two new Rocksford Fosgate speakers in the front for better sound when the top is down
-New tires put on at the beginning of this summer

I recently traded in my truck for an Acura that i'm going to drive all season.  Dad told me to put this car on eBay to see what he could get out of it since I'm not driving it anymore.  He said it'd be worth it not being in our garage all winter so we have somewhere to store our boat.  Please consider this car, it's worth it for the fun stick shift to drive.  Message me with any questions you have about the car.  I look forward to hearing from you!

Witness this insane 736-hp VW Golf immolate its front tires

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

There's torque steer and then there's what we'll from now on dub "The Boba," as in Boba Kettler. The German tuner has a way with the Volkswagen Golf, and the MkI example you see above has been touched with 736 horsepower - that's right, 96 more ponies than a new SRT Viper, all trying to get to ground through those two front wheels.
The 2.0-liter, 16-valve engine has an 8,800 rpm redline and is aided by a Garrett GTX3582R turbocharger shoving 50 psi through the internals. Other upgrades include a new ECU (natch) and a six-speed 'box among other treats. The rubber is Toyo R888s - street-legal competition tires. The result is enough smoke for three Chinese New Years when the lights go green. Indeed, the standing start isn't its forte, but it can apparently get from 62 miles per hour to 124 mph in five seconds.
Watch it go in the video below. And know that this isn't even Boba's best work; he's got a 900-hp MkII Golf that'll do 0-62 mph in 2.3 seconds.
